This is only one historical Field Township quarantine signs. Others included notices about measles, small pox and typhoid fever and other communicable illnesses.Beginning in 1922, Field council counted on the local doctor regarding the postings on houses. When posted, residents could not leave, food had to be brought to them until they were no longer a threat to other residents. Children were also taken out of school if they lived in a quarantined house. This practice continued until the discovery of penicillin when such illnesses could be cured.[During the amalgamation many Field municipal information were thrown at the dump, these signs were rescued for posterity]falsefalseOOI.2297063eng22970632011-05-03T19:48:15Z2011-05-03T19:48:15ZfalsetrueLa Société historique de Nipissing OuestFieldQuarantines1922http://images.ourontario.ca/Partners/SHNO/SHNO002297063t.jpgQuarantine sign for scarlet feverquarantine sign for scarlet fever 2297063imagetexthttp://images.ourontario.ca/NipissingOuest/2297063/data23 Jun 20102011-08-02T11:21:35ZfalsefalseOOI.2321063eng23210632011-08-02T11:22:44Z2011-08-02T11:24:10ZfalsetrueOakville Public Libraryhttp://images.halinet.on.ca/OakvilleImages/Images/OI002321063t.jpgHartley Tosh Birthday Annoucementhartley tosh birthday annoucement 2321063textimagehttp://images.oakville.halinet.on.ca/2321063/dataRI00241970,Various2011-05-13T14:18:42ZVariousAn announcement saying that a buisiness has been sold in order to pursue other interests.Rosseau Garage - purchased by George Generoux Oct 1 1970 from Vic CoxBook 2 - page 98 -691211image/jpeghttp://images.ourontario.ca/Partners/rhs/RHS002301643f.jpgfalsefalseOOI.2301643eng23016432012-04-04T09:57:47Z2012-08-08T11:12:23ZfalsetrueRosseau Historical SocietyRosseauAnnouncementsAutomobile service stationsRosseau1970http://images.ourontario.ca/Partners/rhs/RHS002301643t.jpgVG Cox Garage Closing after 35 year of service. - RI0024vg cox garage closing after 35 year of service ri0024 2301643textimagehttp://images.OurOntario.ca/rosseau/2301643/dataOOI.28413342841334http://vitacollections.ca/OLA-live/2841334/dataAppointmentsappointments 2841334Grace Buller197012The Provincial Public Library Service Announcement for Grace Buller's new appointment as Co-ordinator of Public Library Services.falseToronto1970122014-11-03T13:40:59Z2015-01-15T13:10:41Z2015-01-15T13:10:37Ztextimagehttp://images.ourontario.ca/Partners/OLA/OLA002841334t.jpgOntario Library AssociationtrueAnnouncementAppointmentengfalsetrue10139088462467624849431713499304107896056555346454336292824222217171515151414141212101010998888877766665554444444443333333333332222222222222222222222222211111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111151896002954259142114111102767662424032302927252323201916151514141111111198877777666666554444444444333333333333222222222222222222222222222111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111633110003631821371161089875575237352827252219149988776665444443322222111111111111118638100650939619118618312041191312101099876554433333333222222222111111111111118684258659501257124316702015710341796451357169020071051152653618140181821113211113121211112533311112331231254163141311111123314133414172022181049787215019432515239810614515161519212237155131402992748193668884731081941291691721321271691161601351721731761882001841862071261912383032521411942121431471481261361231431763812251599818232true
